APEC's 2011 Major Projects Inventory measured Atlantic Canada's total potential major project investment at $71 billion this year -- marginally lower than the $72 billion seen last year. However, within this seemingly minor shift APEC identified significant trends affecting the region, including the continued rapid growth in Newfoundland and Labrador and the end of public stimulus spending. A copy of the Major Projects Inventory, which details 354 projects in the Atlantic region, is included with the Atlantic Report.
